Half an hour later, Stephen got the surveillance footage. He showed it to Yvonne on his phone.Just as Stephen had expected, the footage showed the corner of the wall and captured Mark in plain view.Mark had even deliberately looked at the camera. He was clearly provoking them! Yvonne gritted her teeth. "He's in Northerna City! What's he trying to do?""Since he's been able to move so freely, I'm guessing someone must be helping him cover up his tracks." Stephen put his phone away and added coldly, "Mrs. Carrington Senior has been helping him this whole time. Now that he dares to show up right in front of us, I'm guessing he will soon return to the Carrington family. He showed up here to tease us about his return.""He is really getting more and more cocky! We have to inform Mr. Carrington about this as soon as possible so that he can be prepared."Yvonne was about to return to her car to grab her phone. She had forgotten about the pain in her ankle, and she stumbled forward.

That night, when Yvonne passed by Elvin's room, she heard Britney's muffled voice coming through the door.She stopped in her tracks.Through the slit in the door, she saw two heads huddled over the laptop, muttering about something among themselves.Seeing that it was bedtime, Yvonne raised her hand and knocked on the door. "You two, it's time for bed."Surprised, the two children jumped up.Elvin shut his laptop right away, while Britney covered it by putting her doll on it. She looked flustered.Yvonne saw Britney's reaction and got suspicious. She pushed the door open and entered. "Are you two up to no good?"Britney shook her head fervently. "Nope!"On the other hand, Elvin was calm. "Nope.""Hmm?" Yvonne swept a glance at the laptop under the doll. "El, show me your laptop."Elvin furrowed his brows and refused coolly, "Mommy, you're invading my privacy.""Well, I'm your guardian. I have the right to do it based on my judgment of your current actions," Yvonne retorted

The next morning, the doorbell at Miller Villa rang.Edith opened the door and saw Stephen standing there. She was stunned for a while before she managed to ask, "Have you taken breakfast?""Yes." Stephen raised a bag in his hand and said in a deep voice, "I'm not here for breakfast. I'm here to deliver medicine.""Medicine?" Edith recalled that Yvonne had been limping when she had returned home the night before. She immediately understood. "You're here to deliver medicine for Ms. Miller? Her ankle was really swollen!"Then, she stepped aside to let Stephen in. "She should come down any moment soon."Chelsea came downstairs. When she saw Stephen, she stopped in her tracks.The sun shone in the living room. On top of his already flawless face, Stephen looked dashing in his suit. All it took was one look to get someone hooked.Chelsea looked at him in a daze. All she could hear was her heart thumping hard. She had seen many good-looking men in her life, but none of them had be

Before Yvonne boarded the plane, she sent Otto a message. "I'm heading back to Emerald Group. Let me know if there's news on the Carrington family's side."Stephen was next to Yvonne. He happened to see her phone screen and snickered. "Do you need to report your whereabouts to him all the time?"Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Whatever. I can't be bothered to explain such trivial things to you."Stephen immediately became unhappy. "What sort of attitude is that?""You're the one who started mocking me, and you're picking on me for my attitude?" Yvonne kept her phone away and hastened her steps onto the plane, leaving Stephen behind.Stephen's gaze darkened as he saw her walk ahead.…The flight was 18 hours long. Stephen and Yvonne didn't say a single word to each other once, despite being on the same private plane.When the plane landed, it was already the next morning. The two left the airport one after the other.Yvonne was used to wrapping her head in a silk scarf. She walked in

While they entered the headquarters' cafeteria, they bumped into many of Emerald Group's members. All of them only greeted Garrett and Stephen.Yvonne's head was wrapped in her silk scarf once again. She secretly sized everyone up.In half a year, Emerald Group had gotten a lot of new faces. Yvonne had heard from Otto before that Stephen had injected fresh blood into the Group. He had even changed their business model.Emerald Group, which had once been along the blurred lines of legality, had become much cleaner and more legitimate in their business dealings.Thanks to that, their influence had become stronger, and their businesses expanded a lot, too.It was exactly what Yvonne had wanted to do. She hadn't wanted people who joined Emerald Group to sacrifice their lives for the organization. She had wanted everyone to work hard in unity to manage the Group better. She had wanted every person who wandered to the Emerald Group to find a sense of belonging. Yet, before she could
